Princess Anne pips her brother King Charles as the hardest working royal of 2023, carrying out 457 engagements

Princess Anne has been the hardest-working member of the royal family this year, completing 457 royal tasks, 32 more than King Charles.

According to an analysis of public events and official meetings conducted by Sunday TelegraphThe King came in second place with 425 fights, and his wife Queen Camilla came in fourth place with 233 fights. The Duke of Edinburgh was third with 297 fights.

These events included events such as the coronation on 6 May and the king’s state visit to France in September.

In 2023, the Princess Royal and King have an increased workload as they take on many of the responsibilities and obligations previously held by Elizabeth II.

Prince William and Princess Kate took on 172 and 128 engagements respectively, with the majority of day-to-day public engagements being carried out by members of the Royal Family already in or nearing retirement.

Princess Anne was the hardest working member of the royal family this year, completing 457 royal tasks.

King Charles took part in 425 battles, including events such as his coronation on 6 May and his state visit to France in September.

Harry and Meghan are no longer part of the royal schedule, with the Prince and Princess of Wales focusing on fewer patronages to highlight issues close to their hearts.

King Charles refuses to let Prince Harry emotionally blackmail him over the royal race after Omid Scobie released his book Endgame.

The Dutch version of the book had to be quickly pulled from shelves after it revealed the names of two members of the royal family accused of raising “concerns” about Archie’s skin color.

Sources close to the king, who Scobie accuses along with the Princess of Wales of discussing Archie’s skin, said he was “not bothered” by being named and was instead “full of energy”.

They said Sun King Charles told friends that his “own son would not be emotionally blackmailed.”

It comes after Dutch publishers hit back at Scobie after he accused them of an error that led to the two names being revealed.

The royal family and the Sussexes have so far remained silent about the contents of the book.

Scobie has long been considered Harry and Meghan’s favorite royal journalist, but they are understood to deny any role in informing him of Endgame.

In a potential olive branch, Prince Harry recently called his father on his birthday from his home in California.

He and his wife have hinted they will accept an invitation to Sandringham for Christmas, although it is unclear whether they will be invited.
